and found department With a full complement of 36 eager girls vye set out on the path toyy ard the great year 1945 The brightest spot of the year yy as 1 grand party giyen for us by Miss Haddock yyhere for the first time yye be gan to appreciate our home room as a yyhole Coming back in the fall of 1942 vye had gained fiye girls from Miss Zimmerman s room and one from 'Vhnne sota We felt far from green and ready to have a gay time but sad was our discoy ery that being a softie yyas plenty of yyork and not mueh play Our junior year proyed to be a 50 50 proposition of good times and hard work Our first effort of the year was to put on the first football mixer just three days after school started Maybe this is one of those unmention ables but since theres not enough time left to punish us yye ll admit that we took the ushering project with an eye towards being the first to leave class and the last to get back to class The greatest success of the year, the Maidens Day Dance, May 19 was due to the desperate vyork of the girls who finally pinned the 139th M P Band to plav for the dance Still another big event on the 1944 calendar was ushering for Commencement and Baecalau reate The final fling of the year yyas a wonderful beach QContinued on page 52j RooM 2 Home room 2 has had an exceedingly interesting his tory Originally it was known as home ioom 7, and Mr Ripley guided its course for tyyo years Then home room 7 yyas moy ed to make room for oncoming freshmen, and the boys of the group then became officially known as the Vlen of M 3 under the protective wing of Mr Col lins Suddenly before they knew what was happening 'VI 5 yyas filled with neyy shop machines This time there was no room for the boys in the high school so the Men of VI 3 became the Vlen of the unior High Sewing Room Finally this year they yyere giyen a nevy home and a new name, the Men of 2 or Lang s Lugs At the beginning of this school year, the third senior boys home room room 25 yy as broken

yyas to be their home room for four years Little did anyone dream that in 1945 this same eroyy el of boys yyould hiye become seniors yy ho could han dle their oyyn affairs yyisely and yyell Under the guiding hand of A Nelson ady 1ser these boys haye participated in many ey ents and haye help ed the school put oyer many driyes unior Red Cross yy ar bonds clothing saly age and other yyorthy causes

RooM12 As gayy king greenies vye entered room 12 on the first day of school in the fall of 41 little realizing that this yy ould be our home room for four years Although four years seemed almost an eternity then, they have passed quickly and haye been filled with fun, friendship, and all the other little things yyhieh have made the home room one of the happier phases of our high school careers As freshmen yye had the largest girls home room in school Miss Ethel J Doyy our adviser, tried to teach us parliamentary procedure Our first home room officers President Lois Carter Nice President Pat Wright Secre tlry Barbara Blair and Treasurer ulia Casino found it both difficult and exciting to win the approy ll of Miss Dow on parliamentary law and to keep Neva Bye from walking out at the same time Everyone got acquainted that first year what with home room squabbles and sup pers at Miss Dow s apartment Returning as sophomores yye found oursely es not quite so inexperienced and elected as our home room officers Gloria Allain, president Sara Cale Iusher vice president, Lois Carter secretary and Barb Blair, treasurer With Shorty Allain spurring us on we realized more than ever the nearness of war and set about to do our part, vyhich was making war stamp corsages morning, noon, and after school As suffermores our bowling parties seem ed to bring everyone closer together None of us could bowl but Beulah Campbell and Alma Butler led the pack and usually managed to get more than 50 As juniors we really felt like upperclassmen, and giving a mixer and an all school party didn t help to lower our ego Our officers were Shirley Corey president, Beverley Continued on page 53 RooM 6 During their four years in Sault High the girls of home room 6 haye been lodged in three different home rooms When they entered in 1941 as freshmen they started in room 22 under the able direction of Miss Gladys Wold Betty Ann 'v1acLachlan was chosen first home room presi dent serying a yyhole year
